Has it ever happened to you that you saw a nail color on someone and thought that you would never wear that color and then after years you find yourself crushing on that color? Well it has been happening to me a lot recently. One such color that I thought I would never like was olive green color but now I look forward to wearing it. I am referring to the color Mint Mojito from Maybelline's Color Show Nail Polish line.

Maybelline says:

I think:

This is a perfect olive green color. The warm undertones go perfectly with my Indian skin. The formula is creamy and thick,in fact it is thicker that the most color show polishes I have tried. It is not too thick that it gives a streaky application and it is not too thin that you need more than two coats to get opaque coverage. The nail polish dries fast and does not smudge or smear. It lasted on me for around 4 days without fading or chipping (it could be because of the base coat), which is the longest any of the color show nail polishes have stayed on my nails. Although this nail polish is my current obsession, but I will caution you that you absolutely need a base coat with this nail polish as it does stain nails quiet a bit.
